If I run bsdinstall, it sees ada0 and ada1, but I cannot partition and label the raid partition. Am I supposed to just write to ada0 ? What is the best way to do it Guided just shows ada0 and ada1 The partition editor does show md0 4.0 MB malloc ada0 465 GB raid/r0 465 GB ada1 465 GB raid/r0 465 GB But I cannot label any of the r0 'disks' It comes up with Invalid argument. arg0 'Intel-a5bbf622' ada0 at ahcich0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 ada0: ATA-8 SATA 3.x device ada0: 300.000MB/s transfers (SATA 2.x, UDMA6, PIO 8192bytes) ada0: Command Queueing enabled ada0: 476940MB (976773168 512 byte sectors: 16H 63S/T 16383C) ada0: Previously was known as ad4 ada1 at ahcich1 bus 0 scbus1 target 0 lun 0 ada1: ATA-8 SATA 3.x device ada1: 300.000MB/s transfers (SATA 2.x, UDMA6, PIO 8192bytes) ada1: Command Queueing enabled ada1: 476940MB (976773168 512 byte sectors: 16H 63S/T 16383C) ada1: Previously was known as ad6 ahci0: port 0x3068-0x306f,0x3074-0x3077,0x3060-0x3067,0x3070-0x3073,0x3020-0x303f mem 0xb2620000-0xb26207ff irq 18 at device 31.2 o n pci0 ahci0: AHCI v1.30 with 6 3Gbps ports, Port Multiplier not supported ahcich0: at channel 0 on ahci0 ahcich1: at channel 1 on ahci0 ahcich2: at channel 2 on ahci0 ahcich3: at channel 3 on ahci0 ahcich4: at channel 4 on ahci0 ahcich5: at channel 5 on ahci0 ---Mike -- ------------------- Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications, mike@sentex.net Providing Internet services since 1994 www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada http://www.tancsa.com/
